akandula Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) The majority of these birds are indeed American Wigeons. The green on their head is only seen with good light. I can also see American Coots in the first pic and Gadwalls in the second pic. Edited April 9, 2020 by akandula 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexGeorge Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) @akandula Thanks for the feedback! From what you said it seems safe to say that the closest bird in the 1st image is an American Wigeon, as well as several others further back along with the 2 coots. So you would say most of the birds in the second image are American Wigeon, along with some gadwall? correct? Thanks!

Sneat Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 In the second image I am seeing 2 Gadwalls and the rest are American Wigeons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
